The people that were living in darkness have seen a great light, and on those that were living in the land of the shadow of death; a light has dawned."

So if, in the very act of presenting your gift at the altar, you remember that your brother has something against you,

But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman so as to have an evil desire for her at once has already committed adultery with her in his heart,

So never worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries of its own. Each day has evil enough of its own."

And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes, even wild birds have roosts, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."

But to show you that the Son of Man has authority to forgive sins on earth" -- turning to the paralyzed man, He said to Him -- "Get up, pick up your bed, and go home."

And just as He was saying these things to them, an official came up and fell on his knees before Him, and said, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand upon her and she will come to life."

And Jesus, on turning and seeing her, said, "Cheer up, my daughter! Your faith has cured you." And from that moment the woman was well.

"I solemnly say to you, of all men born of women no one greater than John the Baptist has ever appeared; and yet the one who is least important in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

And from the days of John the Baptist until the present moment the kingdom of heaven has been continuously taken by storm, and those who take it by storm are seizing it as a precious prize.

Let him who has ears listen!

For John came neither eating nor drinking with others, and yet they said, 'He has a demon.'

But He said to them, "What man is there among you, if he has only one sheep and it falls into a ditch on the sabbath, will not lay hold on it and lift it out?

Now if Satan is driving out Satan, he has become disunited; how then can his kingdom last?

But if I by the Spirit of God am driving the demons out, then the kingdom of God has come to you.

Let him who has ears listen."

For to anyone who has, more will be given, and his supply will overflow, but from anyone who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

For this people's soul has grown dull, and with their ears they can scarcely hear, and they have shut tight their eyes, so that they will never see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn to me, so that I may cure them!'

He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' Then they said to him, 'Do you want us, then, to go and gather them?'

For the Son of Man is going to come in His Father's splendor, with His angels, and then He will pay back to everyone in accordance with what he has done.

But I say to you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but treated him as they pleased. Just so the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands."

"Lord, do pity my son, for he has epilepsy and suffers excruciating pain, and often falls into the fire or into the water.

"What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them gets lost, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hillsides, and go and search for the one that is lost?

So they are no longer two but one. Therefore, what God has joined together man must stop separating."

He said to them, "It is not every man who has the capacity to carry out this saying, but it is for those to whom the capacity has been given.

And everyone who has given up home or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms, for my sake, will receive many times as much, and in addition will be in possession of eternal life.

They answered him, 'Because nobody has hired us.' He said to them, 'You too go out to my vineyard.'

just as the Son of Man has come, not to be served but to serve, and to give His life a ransom price to set many free."

Then Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the Scriptures: 'That stone which the builders threw away has become the cornerstone; this is the work of the Lord and seems wonderful to us!'

'The Lord has said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, Until I put your enemies under your feet!'

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem! The city that has kept on murdering the prophets, and stoning those who have been sent to her, how often I have yearned to gather your children around me, as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, but you refused!

For the man who has will have more given to him, even till it overflows, but from the man who has nothing even what he has will be taken away.

But Jesus, because He understood them, said to them, "Why do you embarrass the woman? She has done a good deed to me,

For in putting this perfume on my body she has done it to prepare me for my burial.

I solemnly say to you, all over the world wherever this good news is proclaimed, the good deed that she has done will be told, in memory of her."

After that He came back to the disciples and said to them: "Still sleeping! Still resting! See! The time has come for the Son of Man to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men!

But this has all taken place so that the writings of the prophets may be fulfilled." Then the disciples all forsook Him and made their escape.

Then the high priest tore his clothes, and said, "He has uttered blasphemy, What more evidence do we need? You have just heard His blasphemy.
